A Little Teaser

Let’s just rename today Teaser Thursday!

I’m sure everyone’s feeds are buzzing with Star Wars awesomeness right now. If you haven’t seen the new teaser trailer, head on over to YouTube (I’ll post a link at the bottom). I feel like adding my own little teaser into the mix!

This is by no means on the same epic level as Star Wars. 😉

Teaser cover!

I’m working on a novella (I took a break from editing Omg!Orcs), and the best news is that it will be a FREE ebook! Here is a snapshot of the cover…which may or may not change by the time I’m done revising the story.

Oh, and as for my Photoshop woes? They are over. I downloaded a free alternative (yes, folks, it is a safe alternative and not one of those “super optimizer pro double speed freezz storage support paint and remember that’s free with a double z!” scams).

The program I’m using now is called GIMP. Wikipedia has a good summary of it.

GIMP (/ɡɪmp/;[5] an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a free and open-source raster graphics editor[6] used for image retouching and editing, free-form drawing, resizing, cropping, photo-montages, converting between different image formats, and more specialized tasks.

http://www.gimp.org/ is their website. Click download, ignore the torrent (they have a normal download option in smaller font right below the torrent option), and enjoy!

Here is a huge shout out to all of the people on YouTube who’ve posted GIMP tutorials. You guys are the real MVPs! 

And now for some Star Wars:
